There is provided a method of testing a subterranean formation for fracture condition, including the steps of creating a side bore into the wall of a well traversing the formation, sealing the wall around the side bore to provide a pressure seal between the side bore and the well, pressurizing the side bore beyond a pressure inducing formation fracture while maintaining the seal and monitoring the pressure to identify the fracture condition.

The present invention provides therapeutic compositions and methods for treating and preventing fungal disease or conditions including mucormycosis. The therapeutic methods and compositions of the invention include vaccine compositions having an FTR polypeptide or an antigenic fragment of the polypeptide; a vector including a nucleotide sequence that is substantially complimentary to at least 18 contiguous nucleotides of FTR sequence; an antisense; a small interfering RNA or an antibody inhibitor of FTR. The vaccine compositions of the invention can further include an adjuvant.

The invention is a sealing system, such as a packer, that is used in a wellbore to seal against an exterior surface, such as a casing or open wellbore. The sealing system includes a swellable material that swells from an unexpanded state to an expanded state thereby creating a seal when the swellable material comes into contact with a triggering fluid.

摘要:
An apparatus includes a base pipe and a fluid control material. The base pipe includes openings, and the fluid control material is mounted to the pipe to control fluid communication through the openings of the pipe. The fluid control material has a permeability that may be changed to selectively control the communication of well fluid through the openings.

An antenna structure is separately and independently formed with respect to a tubular adapted for long-term disposal within a wellbore. The antenna is adapted for easy and rapid deployment on the tubular. An independently formed ‘partial ring section’ (or arcuate shaped member) contains an antenna coil. In one embodiment, one or more of the independently formed partial ring sections is placed on the exterior of the tubular to form a well completion. In another embodiment, a plurality of partial ring sections are coupled to a spooled cable for rapid deployment of the antennas onto a tubular in the field. Another embodiment includes partial ring sections forming an antenna with multiple coils of differing orientation to provide directional sensitivity.
摘要:
A well survey process for combining highly accurate well survey data with lower quality survey data in such manner that survey determination of overall borehole trajectory is improved. The inclination and/or azimuth of the wellbore path at each of the wellbore survey stations is acquired with a MWD tool or other survey instrument maintained stationary within the wellbore. Continuous survey measurements, for inclination and/or azimuth are taken during the drilling process and therefore less accurate due to significant drilling noise. Stationary survey measurement is more accurate but infrequently sampled, while continuous inclination and/or azimuth measurement is less accurate but more frequently sampled. The objective is to augment a conventional minimum radius of curvature approximation of the wellbore trajectory between the survey stations with whatever reliable information can be extracted from the continuous inclination and/or azimuth measurements. The continuous position augmentation of the conventional minimum radius of curvature approximation minimizes wellbore trajectory errors between survey stations and thus enhances the accuracy of the calculated spatial position or trajectory of the wellbore being drilled.
